“We played very well this evening. We had to win this game, because it was a very difficult situation and my team deserves congratulations.
“We felt a lot of support in this game, we had to fight and we did very well.”
“I am so happy for us, for the fans. It was a pretty difficult moment where things weren’t going well, but I am sure this game will give us a real energy boost. I am so pleased for the team and those people in the stands.
“I won’t say this must be normal, but this kind of spirit must be the norm. We have to give our all on the field and that will make us and the fans proud, then we’ll see whether the results go our way or not.
“It is our duty to give our all. There are negative moments in life and in careers, we must make sure that we don’t have regrets at the final whistle and that’s what happened today. We are always by the side of the coach, despite what is said outside.”

Well it’s lucky Milan won that, because Okafor just literally missed an open goal!
Milan on the counter with Okafor, but the touch is clumsy. Abraham is screaming on the touchline!
Inter put a cross in from the left with Dimarco and Darmian unmarked nods over the bar!

Abraham off, Pavlovic on.
Everybody up for the Inter corner, but Thuram fouls Emerson Royal from behind.
Into 6 minutes of stoppages.
If he was a nominee for MOTM before, he’s definitely one now!
Milan whip that Reijnders free kick into the box and Gabbia gets there for the header at the near top corner! He snuck up behind Frattesi and timed the jump perfectly!
Sommer parries the Theo Hernandez cross-shot at the near post, then Reijnders follow-up charged down.
Dimarco takes down Loftus-Cheek for a yellow card and free kick.
Rafael Leao off, Chukwueze on.
Asllani booked for a foul on Fofana. Left the foot in.
Milan chaotic again, they are eager, but messy. Abraham shot charged down, then eventually Okafor scuffs the finish through a sea of legs, easy take for Sommer.
Gabbia has cramp and you can’t blame him, he’s been everywhere.
Carlos Augusto replaces the exhausted Bastoni.
Zielinski floats a cross in from the right, Lautaro Martinez just can’t quite get there and Emerson Royal clears.
Pulisic and Morata off, Okafor and Loftus-Cheek on for Milan.
Oh what a chance for Milan! Reijnders through ball, Abraham catches the Inter defence totally unawares to go clear, his angled drive flashes inches wide!
What a game this is!
Inter with a well-worked move, Gabbia flings himself in the way to intercept and immediately sparks a three on three counter, where Leao goes for the angled drive and forces a tough Sommer save! Pulisic fuming, he wanted the pass!
Zielinski on, Barella off for Inter.
Rafael Leao blasts into the stands from a promising position.
Maignan has to make the save this time! Bastoni is pretty much permanently up there attacking now, another cross finds Lautaro to turn quickly and with surprising power from 12 yards, good save from Maignan.
